Chapter 2585: Chapter 2585: Passage? Immortal Palace?
Su Yang had yet to grasp what was happening, but something was already in his hand. Turning his head, he saw it was the six-winged skeleton from earlier.
At some unknown moment, it had ended up to the left of Su Yang, and Su Yang’s left hand had precisely caught one of its bone wings, lifting it in the air like a chick. No matter how it struggled, it couldn’t break free from Su Yang’s grip.
This process seemed complex, but it all occurred in an instant. Even Su Yang’s mind wasn’t that quick, and throughout the process, he hadn’t realized what had happened.
However, there was no doubt that the Illusion understood exactly what had transpired. Moreover, if it wasn’t for the Illusion’s intervention, Su Yang would have certainly fallen victim to the six-winged skeleton’s ambush. The speed of this six-winged skeleton was truly unimaginable!
The Illusion held the skeleton in the air, letting out a few rhythmic sounds, as if in defiance, and then extended another hand to break off all three pairs of bone wings on the back of the six-winged skeleton.
The six-winged skeleton emitted screams of pain, and the Immortal Palace below echoed with angry roars, but ultimately nothing changed.
After breaking off the three pairs of wings, the Illusion tossed the skeleton into the misty qi below and then stood in the void with a blade, shouting loudly once more.
Though the Immortal Palace still echoed with angry roars, this time, no one emerged from within. It seemed they had realized the Illusion’s might and dared not come out.
The Illusion shouted a few times; seeing no one emerge, it then turned its blade towards the surrounding skeletons.
These skeletons, compared to those inside the Immortal Palace, were worlds apart in terms of strength.
At this moment, Su Yang realized that these skeletons left outside were not truly formidable; the real powerhouses were inside the Immortal Palace. The ones outside were merely akin to minor underlings.
However, judging by their skeletons, they were not too different from the three Crystal Skulls. From this, one could tell that their strength in life could not have been much less than that of the three Crystal Skulls.
Yet, to think that skeletons of such strength were just minor underlings made one wonder what kind of big shots were inside the Immortal Palace.
The Illusion glanced at these skeletons, then suddenly raised the Heaven-Slaying Blade in its hand.
A furious shout immediately came from within the Immortal Palace; the Illusion replied unceremoniously. After a brief moment of silence, the Immortal Palace uttered another low shout, and those surrounding skeletons, as if obeying orders, reluctantly backed away.
At this moment, the Illusion withdrew the Heaven-Slaying Blade into the void, and it also retreated from within Su Yang’s skeleton, slowly fading into the void.
Su Yang finally regained control of his body, but he remained somewhat bewildered.
What exactly had just happened? What was the Immortal Palace? Who were those inside? What were the skeletons outside?
How could he have anticipated that within the Great Main God’s Array, there would be such powerful beings?
Su Yang could tell that any random skeleton here could definitely annihilate the Great Main God.
He suddenly thought of his mother. Did she enter this Array in the Guardian Land and get injured?
But if she really did enter here, how did she manage to leave?
According to Su Yang’s estimation, his mother’s strength was likely comparable to that of the Great Main God, belonging to the just-entered Earth Level realm. Her strength was certainly far inferior to the skeletons here. If she relied solely on herself, she definitely wouldn’t be able to get out.
However, Su Yang quickly recalled his own bones.
Su Yang’s bones were treasures brought from that world by the Holy Daughter and later transferred onto Su Yang, granting him his current abilities.
Calculating the timeline, when the Holy Daughter entered this Array, she still had these bones with her. This means she entered the Array with these bones. Therefore, she must have been protected by these bones to survive.
However, considering what Su Yang experienced, once she had entered this area, her flesh must have been entirely consumed. When the Holy Daughter’s flesh was depleted, she must have suffered wounds to her primordial energy, thus leaving with injuries.
On this point, the Holy Daughter and Su Yang were different. Even though Su Yang’s flesh was consumed, his primordial energy remained unharmed. His primordial energy was protected by both the Illusion and the skeleton, making it far from easy to harm Su Yang’s primordial energy!
Yet, Su Yang was more curious about what his mother had come here to do in the past.
Could it be that she was also deceived by the Great Main God and thus ventured in?
However, she was here for an ambush, and it was impossible for the Great Main God to know her intentions in advance, much less lay a trap for her. So it’s unlikely she was tricked by the Great Main God.
Thus, the only reason must have been that she came here of her own accord.
This Array’s aura was very strong, and under normal circumstances, those sensing its aura wouldn’t rashly intrude. What could be so important for his mother to enter?
Su Yang recalled what his mother had done when she entered the Guardian Land; she had sealed the entrance connecting to the Guardian Land and also took away some extremely important items from there.
The extremely important items from the Guardian Land should have been hidden by the Great Main God. Some items must have been placed for immediate use, unlikely stashed in such a cumbersome place as this Array.
Moreover, given the situation with the Array, Su Yang suspected that even the Great Main God might not dare to rashly enter it.
Thus, the only possibility was that the entrance to the Guardian Land was inside this Array!
Thinking of this, a thought stirred in Su Yang’s mind.
If his guess was indeed correct, wouldn’t he be able to find the entrance to the Guardian Land in here?
Su Yang quickly got up, yet he discovered that his power seemed restricted, unable to fly here.
He could only run to the mountaintop in the distance, scanning the surroundings for anything suspicious.
After searching for a long time, Su Yang found nothing suspicious. His gaze finally returned to the Immortal Palace, as it seemed the most suspicious place in here.
Could it be that the entrance connecting to the Guardian Land was inside that Immortal Palace?
With this doubt, Su Yang approached the vicinity of the Immortal Palace.
Earlier in the air, Su Yang hadn’t had the chance to observe the Immortal Palace closely. Now, with the people inside the Immortal Palace subdued by the Illusion, it was time for him to carefully inspect the conditions of this Immortal Palace.
